<p>[QUOTE=&quot;firesideguy, post: 1448843, member: 31982&quot;]I received this awhile back at the Toll Facility I work at here in Austin, TX.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>This anomaly does not appear to be from wear. The coin appears to have been struck through grease on the motto &quot;In God We Trust&quot; as well as the mint mark. (My understanding is that all quarters are supposed to have MMs since 1980).&nbsp; I have tried to find evidence of an obliterated mint mart or even a strong hint of one in the proximity of where it normally would be.&nbsp; If I summon my Pareidolia skills I can almost make out a mint mark.&nbsp; The reeding is quite good for this circulated coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I have no idea who or why someone put the V3 (PMD) on the obverse to the right of Washington&#039;s bust. </p><p><br /></p><p>The scans were obtained using an HP7410 @ 600% magnification (both normal and negative.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]179318.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]179319.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]179320.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]179321.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH]179322.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
